Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Movies have become the stories of our culture. People love to discuss favorite movies and actors, and this interest can help you communicate God’s Word with power—if you have exciting, movie-based illustrations at your fingertips. Now the editors of PreachingToday.com have gathered the best movie-based illustrations, the scenes that convey biblical truth convincingly. This collection contains 101 complete illustrations straight from popular movies your listeners can relate to. Each illustration is easy to use—you don’t even have to be familiar with the movie to share the truth it portrays. · Complete index includes multiple keywords and relevant Scripture passages for easy selection. · Each illustration provides plot summary and detailed description of the scene—you can tell the story well even if you haven’t seen the movie. · Exact begin and end times are given for each illustration if you wish to show the video clip. · Each illustration gives background information on the movie—year created, MPAA rating, and more. This handy, to-the-point resource will help you add dramatic muscle to your sermons and lessons. Engage your listeners’ imaginations through the power of movies—and drive biblical truths home to their hearts.

Sit next to a TV in the room and teach from the most powerful media device that we have. The secular is taken and made useful for spiritual things. The movies are familiar, and they give you a great platform to teach from. Get these, they'll help in the growing media-based generations.

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I was very disappointed with this book I just thank God that I didn't have to pay much for it. I have ordered many books from Amazon.com but this has been the worst I have purchased thus far. Maybe it will be helpful in the future but this is one book that will get thrown in the back of the closet for now!
